Summary
An advanced material derived from coal could be the key to overcoming a major obstacle in next-generation microelectronics. Researchers with the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign's Grainger College of Engineering have partnered with the U.S. Department of Energy National Energy Technology Laboratory to show that coal-derived carbon nanodots enable the growth of ultrathin insulating dielectric layers on the two-dimensional semiconductor molybdenum disulfide.
